How do the panels attach behind rear mudflap?

[TimA Member Find all posts View Profile Close TimA]

I had the unfortunate situation where I reversed into a stump and have partially popped the panel behind the rear mudflap. The panel is not cracked or dented but has come apart from the main body. I haven't had the chance to get under and have a real close look yet, but I have cleaned the mud and crap away using one of those spray jobs at a servo. I have a "sliding clip" which came away in my hand and what looks like a plastic type bolt/clip still in the panel.

Can you replace the sliding clip? It look like it is glued on and slides in and the panel is bolted into place afterwards. It is for all intents and purposes out of site, so if necessary, I'll gaffer tape it in place.

Any comments or suggestions appreciated.
